Healthy Choice MS451 200W Electric Food Slicer
Verified5 reviews
Waste of money – Purchased it to slice bread. Suction legs are not sting, so the whole machine moves when you slicing. Absolutely shocking to slice fresh bread. After each slice, have to off the slicer and push the slice of bread out as its stuck. Inconvenient and dangerous even with slicer off, as it's easy to cut your finger on the blade. Slices are choped, not even. I do better job with my blant knife. Very disappointed
Purchased in for $118.12.
Poor performance – Purchased this food slicer to replace my 20-year-old Phillips fold away slicer mainly to slice homemade bread and on rare occasions meat. The machine seems to labour when slicing bread, which is the main purpose for my purchase. The slicer is rarely used and Lenoxx have not replied to my complaint.
Purchased in at Kogan.
Total waste of money – Slow action of the blade. Part of a sliced bread keeps stuck between the blade and the machine part that controls thickness making it useless for cutting bread. This part bends also if one slices something bigger In diameter like cabbage producing uneven slices.
Purchased in for $69.90.
I will not buy Healthy Choice products if this is the quality you get – Packaging is quite good. Instructions are mediocre. Packaging states that the product is "Dishwasher sate" but instructions state "place no part of the slicer in the dishwasher". It is quite fiddly to clean properly. It makes awful gear noises and has slow variable cutting speed depending on work load. So it cuts things rather badly and it is a lot of work to clean up afterwards. No thanks
Purchased in for $79.
Cheap food slicer, but you get what you pay for – WE purchased this food slicer for $59.95 from Kogan as our previous one had died. We had two main used in mind: slicing bread, and slicing meat. After using it a few times, several problems became apparent: 1)- The rotation speed of the blade appears too slow, especially when cutting bread 2)- Bread does not cut cleanly and tends to "tear" towards the end of the cut 3)- Same comment applies when cutting processed meats like salami etc 4)- It is not particularly ergonomic, and the "action" has a lot of friction, so it is not smooth
All in all it is clearly made to a price, and when put to the test that shows. If you were only going to use it for slicing soft meats or cheese, then it might be OK, but I would suggest that you are better off spending a few extra dollars for a better quality unit.
VERDICT: Inexpensive to buy, but very mediocre performance: Not recommended
